Well tho agony Is over, though the light
weight championship is as far from being de-
cided as ever. McAuliffe and Carney have met,
and each is alive to tell his side OF the story OF
the battle. According to Carney, II McAulife
had only gone to the centro OF the ring and
STAYED there, he would have had the life pum-
melted out OF him. McAulfre holds that II
Carney had fought fairly. and not hunted him

would have had no trouble in winning with
ease Each charges the partisans Of the other
| with breaking down the ring and stopping the
battle, and SO tho matter stands.
That Carney who WAS In far the best con.
dition, is able to stand an almost unlimited
amount Of punishment was emphasized by this
| encounter. That he held McAuliffe trlne too
cheap is also seen. McAuliffe is by far tho
cleverest boxer Of the two. and UNNECESSARILY,
| quicker onihis legs. Carney's complaints that
McAulfre would not stand still and fight with
him hit for hit, Is ridiculous. There Is nothing In
tho rules that requires man to do so. and the
| ring Is made "a feet square, or as near that az
slip about and dodge if.he feels disposed to do
so. In tho present case the ring was rs by 40.
